Press Release from Grace Smith House :
We promised that if we reached at least 75 donors during Hudson Valley Gives 2020, our brave board member Marjorie Smith would have a one-woman cymbal parade on the Walkway.
Thanks to you all, we did - so she did! We highly recommend watching this with the volume on, but not if you have a headache.
In case you don't know Marge, she's a longtime local champion for domestic violence victims. She spent 35 years at the Dutchess County District Attorney's Office and now she's a Grace Smith House board member.
Thanks to Marge for being a good sport and all of you for helping us get here during Hudson Valley Gives!
And thank you all for your generosity during Hudson Valley Gives! Every donation you make to Grace Smith House helps provide comprehensive care to survivors, from emergency shelter to counseling, our 24-hour hotline, advocacy and more.
